CHICK COREA
Biography
|
Клавишник
и композитор Чик Кориа (настоящее имя
Армандо Энтони Кориа) родился 12
июня 1941 года в США.
Музыкальная карьера этого выдающегося
пианиста начиналась
в группах, которые
специализировались на латиноамериканской
форме джаза
(1962—1963 гг.)-
влияние этого
стиля прослеживается в творчестве Кории
и по сей день. В 1968 году Чик
Кориа начал сотрудничество с Майлзом
Дэвисом
и Джоном Маклафлином, однако в 1970 году избрал
сольную карьеру, в которой
на этом этапе оринтировался
на акустический фьюжн.
Впоследствии его группа Return То Forever
играла и «электро»- джаз-рок
(в разное время Кориа
собирал и затем
распускал группы Akoustic
Band и
Elektric Band),
но акустический вариант оказался
музыканту ближе, и сегодня он
специализируется исключительно в этом
стиле. С Чиком Кориа
работали и работают самые
известные мастера современной
музыки, в том числе
духовики братья Брекер,
пианист Херби
Хэнкок, бас-гитарист
Джон Патитуччи и
барабанщик Дэйв Уэкл. b. Armando Anthony
Corea, 12 June 1941, Chelsea, Massachusetts, USA. After a very musical home
environment, pianist Corea's first notable professional engagements were in the
Latin bands of Mongo Santamaria and Willie
Bobo (1962 - 63), playing a style of music that continues to
influence him today. Joining Blue Mitchell
's band in 1964, he spent two years with the trumpeter, and had a chance to
record some of his own compositions on Blue Note Records. Corea's first
recordings appeared in 1966 with Tones For Joan's Bones, and show a
pianist influenced mainly by hard - bop. In 1968, he joined Miles
Davis for the trumpeter's first real experiments with fusion.
Playing on some of Davis's most important albums, Corea's electric piano became
integral to the new sound. Leaving Davis in 1970 to explore free music within an
acoustic setting, he formed Circle with Dave
Holland, Barry Altschul,
and later Anthony Braxton.
Although Circle lasted only a year, it managed to make some important recordings
before Corea, now involved in Scientology, became interested in a style with
more widespread appeal. Forming the first of three bands called Return
To Forever in 1971, he played a Latin - influenced fusion
featuring the vocalist Flora Purim
and percussionist Airto Moreiro, before he changed the band's line - up
to produce a more rock - orientated sound in the mid - 70s. The final Return To
Forever hinted at classical music with string and brass groups, but disbanded in
1980 after only moderate success. After playing with numerous top musicians in
the early 80s (including Herbie Hancock
and Michael Brecker ), since 1985
he has concentrated on his Akoustic and Elektric Bands and now records for GRP
Records. Joined by John Patitucci
(bass) and Dave Weckl (drums), he
is presently involved in a music that challenges the extremes of virtuosity,
mixing passages of complex arrangement with solos in the fusion style. |
